2 Corinthians 7:9

---

← 2 Corinthians 7:8	2 Corinthians 7:9 (KJV)	2 Corinthians 7:10 →
For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though [it were] but for a season.	Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.	For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
